Single sided flex

A single layer flexible circuit is the most basic, consisting of a flexible polyimide film laminated to a thin copper sheet. The copper layer is then chemically etched to generate a circuit pattern that suits your specific design requirements. Then add a polyimide cover layer to achieve circuit insulation and environmental protection.

4. thin: the thickness is thinner than the PCB
Can improve flexibility. Strengthen the limited space for three-dimensional assembly.

FPC-Dome-Array-Structural-Drawing
FPC was developed in the United States in the 1970s to develop aerospace rocket technology. It is a highly reliable and extremely flexible printed circuit made of polyester film(PET) or polyimide(PI). By embedding a circuit design on a flexible and thin plastic sheet, many precision components can be stacked in a narrow, limited space to form a flexible circuit.

Such circuits can be bent and folded at will lightweight, small in size, have good heat dissipation, easy to install, breaking through the traditional interconnection technology. In the structure of flexible circuits, the constituent materials are insulating film, conductor, and adhesive.

flexible printed circuit manufacturers Products Pre-Production

      Shanyo’s in the production process, to prevent too many open and short circuits caused by low yield or reduce drilling, calendering, cutting, and other rough process problems caused by the FPC board scrap, replenishment problems, and assess how to choose the material to achieve the best results for customers to use the flexible circuit boards, pre-production pre-processing is very important.
    Pre-production pre-processing needs to deal with three aspects, these three aspects are completed by engineers.
  • FPC board engineering assessment, the company’s production capacity to meet customer board requirements and unit costs.
  • Engineering assessment through, immediately preparing materials to meet the raw material supply of each production process.
  • Engineer customer’s CAD structural drawings, Gerber line data, and other engineering documents to deal with, to suit the production environment and production specifications of the production equipment.
  • Production drawings MI (engineering process card) and other information are delegated to the production department and various departments such as clerical control, procurement, etc., into the regular production process.

Flexible Printed Circuits FPC Advantages

FPC is a printed circuit made of flexible insulating substrate, with many advantages that rigid printed circuit boards do not have:

  • can be free to bend, coil, and fold, according to the requirements of the spatial layout of any arrangement, and in three-dimensional space, arbitrary movement, and expansion, to achieve the integration of component assembly and wire connection;
  • The use of FPC can greatly reduce the volume and weight of electronic products, applicable electronic products to high-density, miniaturization, and high reliability in the direction of development needs. Therefore, FPC in aerospace, military, mobile communications, laptop computers, computer peripherals, PDA, digital cameras, and other fields or products have been widely used;
  • FPC also has good heat dissipation and solderability as well as easy to install and connect, has a lower overall cost, and has other advantages.
